    DisplayLink can already support mulitple USB displays connected on Android with the DisplayLink desktop app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.displaylink.desktop.demo&hl=en_GB

    However Android does not have a concept of multiple displays like other OSes. As of Android Pie, a single app can use more than one screen, eg powerpoint uses the phone screen to show presenter notes, and the extended screen shows the presentation.

    For DisplayLink to properly support dual displays on Android, like other OSes, changes would be needed to Android to support multiple displays.

    Running dual displays on Android can get tricky when you need to tweak layouts or test UI behavior across screens. I’ve found that having a solid file and APK editor on-device makes a big difference, especially when adjusting XML layouts or modifying resources directly. Tools like MT Manager are helpful because they let you decompile, edit, and recompile apps without switching to a PC. That’s useful when experimenting with multi-window or dual-screen setups. If anyone’s exploring deeper customization, this overview helped me understand its features: https://mtmanagersapk.com/. Curious to hear how others are handling UI scaling for dual displays.
